wow. the values dont get affected all that much.

been running +5 for awhile. but the idle hunts like a fuker if the AC is off and the clutch is engaged. ill try cranking it all the way to +20 and see what happens.

Why are you guys even messing with idle torque...

well im bumping it up for a couple reasons.

with a LWFW and agressive clutch, i find the added idle torque helps to keep me from stalling the car from a dead stop. Its a LOT easier to roll off smoothly in traffic.

The other is I have a minor hunting issue with the clutch engaged, and AC off at idle.

I raised my idle torque and it fixed my idle when the clutch is in.

I think it just uses more gas at idle.

im having misfire @ idle issues as well.

Unispeed, do you have upgraded or stiff engine/tranny mounts in the car? could be that transmitting more vibration than normal and tweaking out the kv sensor causing idle misfires. I've seen it before.

I'm running 60lb injectors and I'm getting about 26 misfires/minute but only on 1 cylinder (3), about 15 on another (4) and about 10 on the third (6).

Raising the idle load up to 900 helped (was much worse before) but still getting misfires. I know 60lb injectors are notorious for misfiring at idle, but Wicked is gonna help me get them down to none.

did they ever get your misfires down? I just want them low enough that i dont have a cel. I think cyl 4 and 5 are whats giving me a cel with so many at idle
